Jerry Seinfeld jokingly apologized for the ‘sexual undertones’ in 2007’s ‘Bee Movie’ while giving a commencement speech at Duke University on May 12.

    What was it suppose to be? Unfrosted was a great title because the movie had no substance.

        What did people like about it? The 90s references fell flat and despite the A-list casting choices the script was abysmal. For an hour long, “sitcom style” movie there wasn’t any setup/payoff.

          I tried to watch it this past weekend. I can watch basically anything. I stopped twenty minutes in and that was being generous. And I was/am a huge Seinfeld show fan. I don’t understand what others see. It was awful. The target audience was not me.

          it was good at what it was supposed to be

          What was it supposed to be? It was a movie with no substance

          It was supposed to be a movie with no substance.

          That’s really the extent of how far I’m willing to go to bat for fuckin Unfrosted my dude. Of all the movies ever made, Unfrosted ranks pretty high on the scale of “I really don’t care about it (or what anyone thinks about it) one way or another.”

            I heard (no idea if it’s true because I really don’t care enough to look into it) that he made a bland and inoffensive movie because comedy is too woke and you can’t say anything any more, so there’s no point trying to be funny. I’m not sure if that being true or a joke would be sadder for him.

              The cool thing about movies is you don’t have to watch them if you don’t want to.
